Benched Fuller because you have to respect the MATCHUP!

Won anyway But I am going best player from here on out matchups be damned. Fantasy forecasting is a fools errand.

It'd be awesome if Kareem can put up another 40+ point night tonight, but, of course, gotta save the "one time" until fantasy playoffs.

Now if I can have the balls to keep Fuller off my bench ROS, that'd also be awesome (over Antonio + Thomas + Crabtree...)

I've been holding Josh Gordon for the entire duration in a dynasty league that started in 2015.

Spoiler:
I traded him last night.

I've made three trades in a dynasty league, and the following three things have happened:

Spoiler:
After week 2: Todd Gurley and Allen Robinson for David Johnson and Stefon Diggs.
Gurley blows up and Diggs has one great game then gets hurt.


Spoiler:
Last week: Alvin Kamara for Alshon Jeffery.
Ezekiel Elliott's suspension is upheld, opening a RB slot in my lineup Kamara could've filled.


Spoiler:
DeVante Parker, Josh Gordon, and a 1st and 4th round pick for Brandin Cooks and Ben Roethlisberger.
18 hours later, Gordon is reinstated.


On the other hand,

Spoiler:
I'm in first place by a full game and far and away the points leader, thanks to Elliott, Fournette, Hunt, Gronk, Engram, and that rando collection of WR4s and desperation QBs I keep asking for advice on every week.
And now I have all those guys, plus Diggs, Cooks, Jeffery, and Roethlisberger.

Just when everyone was getting ready to move Fuller from their benches to their starting lineups...

Fuller goes back on everyone's bench.

And somehow on Sunday we'll still see 2 TDs on 4 receptions and 5 targets.

Brag: Picked up Osweiler, Savage and Cutler in a 2QB league so that my opponent has to start Garropolo

Beat(?): Had to drop Jordan Reed for that (I have Engram though

Variance(?): I will probably still lose since McCoy only put up 2.5 on TNF

You should be good since Ebron plays more volleyball than football.

148.20-148.05

Needed Jones to outpoint Tate by a good amount and Prater to hit the that last FG under 2 mins to play

Yeah, the real brag is that I'm leading everyone except one team by at least two games and have a huge points lead, despite everything I just described AND the fact that my top two QBs as of August 1 were Andrew Luck and Ryan Tannehill. (I've also lost Chris Carson to IR, as well as some less-significant players.)

STILL A LONG WAY TO THE TITLE THOUGH *knocks on wood*

I was down 30 going into last night with Marvin Jones and Prater against Devante Adams. Didn't really care that much. Accepted the loss. Went out to a business dinner with my wife. Hit the bar after. Noticed that Jones had scored. Started kinda watching. Then Prater hit the crossbar on a 55-yarder. Then Jones scored again. Now I'm interested. Watching just about every play. Jones goes over 100 for bonus points and gets me to within 4. The Lions are still throwing the ball up 27-10. They actually threw it to him twice inside the 10 trying for the hat trick but incomplete. Prater kicks another FG and I lose by 1.

My QB (Winston) and TE (Howard) earned me a total of -1.

If I had just left my TE on bye (Henry) in the lineup I would have won.

Fantasy sucks sometimes.

Just need 5.7 from Landry and Panthers DST to go 8-2, surely?!

To everyone who is sweating Landry tonight,

Yahoo projections give him a 6% chance of scoring less than negative 7.36 PPR points.



Proceed accordingly!

I was also 51.4 points down with Newton and Stills in another league, had written that one off as a loss, can't believe that one won too!
